  • Can I Do Anything About Engorgement?

    QUESTION

    Dear Lactation Consultant,
    I've breastfed successfully and love it, but I still find myself asking is there a way to make those first few days a bit easier with the engorgement?

  • Expressing Breastmilk

    Many women are under the impression that it is necessary to own or use a pump to breastfeed. This is not so. There are very few circumstances under which it is necessary to express your milk.

  • Can I Increase Milk Supply During Pregnancy?

    QUESTION

    Dear Lactation Consultant,
    Hi. I was unable to breastfeed my first child for several reasons. He was given a bottle first because he was sick and I think I didn't produce enough milk. I am a month and a half pregnant and I am wondering if there is something I can do right now that will increase the milk flow when I do give birth. I will also be letting my doctor know that I had problems and will see about getting help for latching on but I wonder if I can change my diet or something now that may help. I would appreciate you letting me know of anything.

    Thank you,
    Leanne
